Viewing SVM IOPS traffic by protocol

You can view detailed IOPS information for an SVM by using the Performance/SVM Explorer page. The IOPS - Total counter chart shows total IOPS usage on the SVM, and the IOPS - Breakdown counter chart is useful for determining the impact of read, write, and other IOPS on the SVM.

Additionally, the IOPS - Protocols chart shows a detailed comparison of the IOPS traffic for each protocol that is being used on the SVM. The following protocols are available:

  • CIFS
  • NFS
  • FCP
  • iSCSI
  • NVMe
  1. In the Performance/SVM Explorer page for your selected SVM, from the IOPS chart, select Protocols from the drop-down menu.
    The IOPS - Protocols chart is displayed.
  2. To view a larger version of the chart, select Zoom View.
    The IOPS advanced protocol comparative chart is displayed. You can restrict the comparison by deselecting or selecting the that is associated with a protocol.
  3. To view the specific values, move your cursor into the chart area of either chart to see the popup window.
